Investigation into police misc

As Parliament began an investigation into the conduct of the Uganda Police last week, some MPs want government to explain why many senior police officers are deserting the force.

The Inspector-General of Police, Major General Kale Kayihura, will also be questioned on the widespread perception that there is regional imbalance in the recruitment and deployment of semi-trained personnel and the militarisation of what should be a civil force. A select committee of Parliament, the first of its kind under Kayihura, who was appointed in 2005, has 40 days to investigate the police and report back to the House.

This time, the select committee will concentrate on allegations of the use of excessive force and brutality during arrests and the dispersing of political meetings.
